bill clinton led that. you know in his heart and in his mind he has major disagreements in the way the president has responded in 1994. he will suppress all that and do his best as he did four years ago to deliver a ringing endorsement that will make a convincing case against mitt romney but with bill clinton you can't be sure. >> two things, i think. first of all. they've had trouble with this, they have to answer the question that mitt romney raised, are you better off than four years ago? they are struggling with that. its hard question to answer because a lot of statistics on unemployment and debt and growth aren't very good. the second thing i think is not the comparison to mitt romney the comparison to barack obama in 2008. it was such a magic convention. i re-read obama's speech when he accepted it and big football stadium with the greek columns. it was impressive speech but it was all hope and change and fresh face on the political scene. he is not there anymore and it will be much harder. >> bret:
